EP Focus: Datson+Hughes

Answered by: Annette Hughes

EP Title? Whispering Highway

How many releases do you have now? Three singles: Poor Time, Thief If Sky (with B-side Planet) and Sweet Mathilda Waltz. Our debut album is out early 2018.

Was anything in particular inspiring you during the making? We just wanted a recording of our live sound, but our production team MEJU raised our understanding of music by some orders of magnitude. They dismantled and reassembled our sound with a new harmonic integrity.

What's your favourite song on it? I Only Come Here. In it I hear David Bowie's Starman, fallen to earth, on his way home.

We'll like this EP if we like... Gillian Welsh, Bob Dylan, The Incredible String Band. Hurray For The Riff Raff, Tim Buckley, Big Star. 

When and where is your launch/next gig? 18 Mar, Phase 4 Records. It's free but if you register, you take home a download of our recent single.
